What If We Brought Back the Art of Waiting for a Story?

What if we brought back the art of waiting for a story? After a little break, I’m back with something very close to my heart: CHAPTERS, my new limited-edition reading experience. In this episode, I’m sharing how the idea came to life, why I decided to release an original romance one instalment at a time, and what makes this project a little different from a traditional book release. Expect physical chapters, little surprises, collectibles, a romance full of secrets, and a novel whose title you won’t discover until the very end. Because sometimes, the waiting is part of the magic. CHAPTERS 01–03 are available now.

A Photo Finish by Elsie Silver

What makes a book impossible to forget? In this spoiler-free episode, I dive into A Photo Finish by Elsie Silver and explore why Cole and Violet's story has been living rent-free in my head ever since I finished it.

The Kingdom of the Wicked trilogy- by Kerri Maniscalco

In today’s episode, I’m sharing my final thoughts on The Kingdom of the Wicked trilogy by Kerri Maniscalco. This series has a lot going for it—an intriguing central concept, a dark and immersive atmosphere, and plenty of romantic tension that keeps things engaging throughout. It’s easy to see why so many readers have fallen in love with this world. However, while the ideas are strong, I found that the execution didn’t fully live up to its potential. Issues with pacing and overall focus made the experience feel uneven at times. In the end, I’d rate the trilogy a 6 out of 10—right in the middle. Not bad, but not particularly memorable either. Tune in to hear a deeper breakdown of what worked, what didn’t, and why this series might still be worth picking up.

Bride and Mate- by Ali Hazelwood

In this episode of Into the Books, I discuss Bride and Mate by Ali Hazelwood, two novels I received as a Secret Santa gift and probably wouldn’t have picked up on my own. Sometimes the most unexpected books turn out to be the most interesting! Join me as I share my first impressions of Hazelwood’s writing and whether these stories won me over. A quick note: I’m recording with a bit of a cold, so you may hear it in my voice. Thank you for bearing with me!

Funny Story - by Emily Henry

Welcome to the episode where we pretend we’re fine after reading Funny Story by Emily Henry — but spoiler alert: we’re not. Expect laughter, over-analysis, and a few existential crises as we ask life’s biggest questions — like “Can I sue her for emotional damages?” Stick around till the end, because I’ve got hot takes, soft moments, and maybe a little too much caffeine. 💬 Love the chaos?

The Book of Azrael- by Amber V. Nicole

In this episode of Into the Books, I share my honest thoughts on The Book of Azrael by Amber V.
